Barn Owls

Walking yesterday evening I was surprised to have a close
encounter with this Barn Owl, I only had time to get one shot off and it’s not
completely sharp but worth including anyway.

I’ve already referred to the good news about Barn Owls in
the local area with many farmers now reporting them present on their land. With
the discovery of the pair near the river that probably implies four pairs nesting in the parish.
